I wish they'd let her work speak for itself. Even though she probably would have a hard time getting a nomination among so many popular actresses, I wish they'd put her in the best actress category and let the chips fall where they may. It's just an award, the performance is already out there, respected and talked about.

The voters will ultimately choose how they will vote, it has happened before that someone who was campaigning for supporting got a nom on lead, campaigning for supporting is only a suggestion, of course sometimes voters do follow these suggestions and if people are so up in arms about it they should change the rules then.

I've just read an article about talent agent Richard Cook, and he's dropping some truth bombs! He was talking about how US talent agencies are currently targeting European talent and people still have that dream to go to Hollywood. He's mentioned Alicia Vikander as one of the European actresses getting her break in her own country first instead of going to Hollywood straight away. Sounds a bit different from what "certain people" want to make us believe about her ambitions.

“People are obsessed still with going to Hollywood. I think that is so misplaced as an idea. If you look at Matthias Schoenaerts, Alicia Vikander and Joel Kinnaman, they got their breaks because they were really good in films in their country.

“When I go to conferences like Shooting Stars in Berlin with panels on “how to get to Hollywood,” I say: “Guys, crank it back to where it really matters, which is doing really good work in your own country.”

I agree completely, can't blame the actresses for anything when the rules allow it. But still, wish Alicia had gone lead. I can't help but think focus features has a part in this aswell, the movie is not getting the reviews they hope, might not even be nominated and Eddie probably wont win after winning last year so a lot of their hope is on Alicia, at least for her getting nominated and creating some buzz! Felicity went lead for theory of everything last year, eventhough Eddie got most of the attention.

Thanks for sharing, it's pretty obvious when people want to become celebrities rather then actresses. I think Alicia's philosophy has always been trying to work with people that she looks up to and the ones that make quality movie, no matter where that takes her. She went back to Sweden and filmed Hotell after having done a few high profile movies because she wanted to work with Lisa Langseth. Hopefully they will work together again, they make such a great combo! :)

Excellent news and well deserved! I just read the article and the section on Alicia starts off:

"ABOUT ALICIA VIKANDER

One of the most promising actors of her generation, Alicia Vikander has been a talent to watch in cinema over the past five years, gaining international recognition."

She's really got the respect of others in the industry and most importantly as an actress, not a celebrity! [emoji3]
